Half day walking tour - Adil was a really knowledgeable guide & showed us around Ben Yousef madrassa, The Souk, the main Jamaa El Fna Square & outside of Koutabi mosque. He advised us to avoid certain things at the square such as snakes & monkey shows due to animal cruelty, & keep possessions in front pockets in the Souk due to pick pockets. He was very professional & I highly recommend him

Excellent Local’s Touch - Knowledgeable, excellent communication, and kept us well informed through the labyrinths of the Medina. I wouldn’t want to roam the souks, especially the first time, without Youssef.

Highly Recommended Tour Guide - Youssef Kharroubi is an excellent tour guide. He gave our family of 5 a half day tour through the Medina in Marrakesh. We learned a lot about the history and culture of Morocco, Marrakesh, and the Medina. It was great first day to get acquainted with this fascinating place. We highly recommend Youssef as a tour guide.

Essaouira excursion - We took an excursion to Essaouira. It was fantastic! Youssef arranged everything and our driver, Rachid, spoke excellent English. Full day and he made the drive there and back interesting. We stopped at a women’s Argan cooperative on the way to learn about how Argan oil is made. The great thing about how Youssef and his team handle things is that they take a lot of the guess work/hassle out figuring out where to eat, etc. We got freshly caught fish grilled at a little stand — delicious! Because of their relationships, it means not having to be confronted by touts making promises and trying to get your attention. It leaves more time to actually learn, participate, eat and enjoy. Essaouira is delightful and interesting. Perfect for a day. Highly highly recommend!

Lahcen - great guide for a walking tour of Marrakech! - Lahcen (organised through Global) was a great guide. He was friendly, funny and knowledgeable - about the country's history, geography, culture and religion and happily answered all our questions.
He went at our pace and asked what we would like to see, making suggestions that all worked for us.
He gave us a great background understanding of the country and its people, so that our subsequent outings made so much more sense.
